COMMENT | Malaysia, a once much-respected nation in Asia, is a shadow of its former self. He is the “sick man” of Asia. He is terminally ill. The nation has been brought to its knees, and the rakyat is powerless to act against the daily onslaught of corruption, injustice, power-grabbing, lies and abuse of power.

Within the last three months, many broken promises have come to define Anwar Ibrahim's two years in office, but there is only one word that best describes his leadership - "betrayal".

The country is desperate to move forward, to implement the much-needed reforms, but we are held back by the prime minister's intransigence. A few may claim it's Anwar's clever political tai chi; we recognise it as his selfish, self-serving agenda.

Some Malaysians are petrified of the “Green Wave”. They will close one, or even both eyes, to accommodate the cack-handed way Anwar handles the Madani administration. Anwar is doing PAS a favour.

Anwar is aware of his unpopularity. So does the DAP...
